[QUOTE="By The Book, post: 1333857, member: 53581"] We were told by Orion team to use it as a tool. Hit 85% delivery trace, do pickups within 15 min.+-. If you shoot for 100% trace when you first get Orion, you will be over miles, get very frustrated how it mixes resis into your business path, and cause you to scramble so you don't miss businesses. You will find many reasons why it doesn't work. If you really want to make it work, get an Orion printout of your route and follow it stop for stop and check your times with p/ups and businesses that close, etc. You will need about a weeks worth of printouts and a lot of patience because as it rolls out every driver is going to be needing face time with the on car sup. One thing I learned on a country rte. is its not that good at routing your path back to the building. You may save miles by not getting some deliveries early and then driving by them on the way in.
